I have forms set up and when they open, the first record in the table shows up in the entry fields. Is there a way to get be blank or to even show a dummy record, instead of showing the data for the first record in the table?

Thanks for your help!
 
You can open the form at a new record, or set the recordsource to an empty table.
 
Set the DataEntry property of the form to True or use acFormAdd as 5th parameter of the DoCmd.OpenForm method.

Hope This Helps, PH.
